Comments from the seller
A highly regarded modern hot hatch, this FK2-generation Honda Civic Type R is an involving turbocharged front-wheel-drive performance car, which is reported to be in highly original condition.
It is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre inline-four ‘K20C1’ engine with VTEC, driving the front wheels via a six-speed manual transmission and limited-slip differential.
This example was originally a UK-delivered model, which has recently been imported to Australia, where it passed compliance in April 2026, though it has yet to be registered.
This car's import grade is 4.5B
The odometer indicates 36,496 km.
Build year: 2016
EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES
The FK2-generation Civic Type R introduced turbocharging to the model line, alongside aggressive aerodynamic styling and a more track-focused chassis setup compared with its predecessors. It was not officially offered in the Japanese domestic market.
This example is finished in the bold shade of Championship Red with contrasting gloss-black trim elements, over a black and red cloth and Alcantara-trimmed interior, featuring red stitching and seat belts, embroidered Type R logos on the front seat backs, and gloss gunmetal-effect, gloss-black, carbon-fibre, and satin metallic red trim.
It rides on a set of 19-inch twin five-spoke alloy wheels finished in gloss-black with red lip accents, framing red brake callipers, and fitted with Continental SportContact tyres.
Equipment includes LED headlights and driving lights, front and rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, cruise control, lane keep assist, an aluminium gear knob, dual-zone automatic air conditioning, and heated door mirrors.
This example has been fitted with a Panasonic Strada double-DIN media system with satellite navigation.
It is supplied with its owner’s handbooks in a black leather wallet, service records, and two remote keys.
This FK2-generation Honda Civic Type R represents a sought-after example of the first turbocharged Type R, combining strong performance with everyday usability and a highly engaging manual driving experience. Presented in desirable Championship Red and with a verified UK-market provenance, it stands as an appealing example for enthusiasts, which would make a rewarding addition to any modern performance car collection or an exciting driver’s car for spirited road use.
